Does anyone under 30 wear Oakleys?

A good Question. For my Two Cents Worth I think that there is still a relatively healthy interest in O as they continue to back promote through Sports such as Athletics, Cycling & Motorsport so that impressionable demigraphic are still "on the hook" so to speak. As an Older Forum member that is how I got into O (just as I was saying goodbye to my Twenties) in the mid nineties. I may have known about the Motorcross stuff but it kind of crisscrossed as JJ was getting big in that sector my interest in MX was lessening & fully concentrated on the Road Racing Side of things. Which was great when firstly the Wires then the XM range came out....

Going forward I have to ask myself as to whether I will want to keep something that possibly in the future my Eyesight will prohibit me from wearing. A question a few on here a few will (and some already have) be asking themselves no doubt........

All 3 of my daughters have them and the older two I made them pay for half of their first pair, so they'd appreciate and take care of them more. Yes, I found them deals on here, so it wasn't near as much as retail. :) The youngest was wearing the same pair of half pints the others wore early on. Gotta start them young!

I umpire, mostly 14-18 year olds, about 150 games a year, and based on that I'd say Oakley is BY FAR the #1 sunglass brand of those players. Amazing how many even "wear" them on their brims for night games just for the style apparently.
